Q&A withDee Heflin
Q. Who is your favorite author?
A. Jim Butcher, he writes fantasy books.
Q. If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to?
A. I would go back to the medieval time period where they had kings, queens, knights, and castles! I love those kinds of movies!
Q. What is your favorite family recipe?
A. Shrimp Fettucine: New Orleans style, we have it every Christmas.
Q. If money was no object, what would you do all day?
A. I would spend my days learning how to gourmet cook. I could go take classes and I would have all day to try and put new recipes together! I’m tired of cooking the same things all the time.
Q. What does it mean to you to be “making a difference”?
A. It makes me feel good to know that we are helping every person who comes through the doors of MRC. When they call us or come in for treatment, at least they can hear a friendly voice or see a smile! I love to see their reaction when we greet them with a smile.
